PS Vita - System Features vs the PSP (http://psp.about.com/od/hardwarefirmware/a/The-Tech-Of-Ps-Vita-Psp-Features-Left-Behind.htm)

We know there will be no UMD drive in the PS Vita, but there was hope that an external UMD reader might be developed to play the old disc-based PSP games on the new hardware. Sony has clarified that they have no plans to develop such a reader; however, it's possible a third-party manufacturer might develop such a device.

what i don,t understand with the vita just like the go why pull umd from it.Most handheld you see today like the ds lite,3ds can play games bought from shops. I would pref to buy games i can play without going on the net like the wii,ps3,xbox 360
